Interviewing for a new job can be nerve wracking -- from deciding how firm your handshake should be to picking out the appropriate outfit. To help prepare for that interview, you should think about the most common interview questions, according to Bruce A. Hurwitz, vice president of New York City-based Joel H. Paul & Associates, Inc., a national executive search firm for the nonprofit sector.
Hurwitz gave a few question examples at the recent Fundraising Day in New York held by the Association of Fundraising Professionals Greater New York Chapter.
Decide how you would answer these questions:
- Why do you want to work here?
- How do you cope with multiple assignments?
- What experience do you have with deadlines?
- How do you deal with criticism?
- How do you deal with a bad supervisor?
- What was your greatest success/failure? And what did you learn from that experience
